Off topic for here but leaning on the many smart minds,,, I need to transfer used motor oil from storage containers located outside of my shop to my inside "day" tank located under my waste oil burning furnace. I would be pumping through a relatively coarse filter head, 30 micron and dont want to be lifting the by pass valve in the filter head. It is also important to not stir up the day tank with fast fill rates. Thus my needs are for around 1 GPM maybe 2 at the most. My initial attempts were with gravity flows and they were barely OK until it got cold out. There is very little head or pressure to worry about, just a 5 foot lift and less than 20 feet total line. I have been looking for a while for a suitable pump and finding nothing. I can fabricate and assemble with a motor but the pump itself has me drawing blanks. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks in advance.
